How do I find journals that are clinical based, and one that is research based? My assignment is to read the table of contents of each and assess.

Answer

Each field has periodicals that are research based and clinical based. Ways to tell the difference can be found in the SCI211 Pathophysiology research guide.

Research articles are created by a scientist who wants to explore an original research hypothesis.

Clinical experience provides clinicians with an intuitive sense of which findings on history, physical examination, and investigation are critical in making an accurate diagnosis, or an accurate assessment of a patient's fate.

Once you know which periodicals are research or clinical based you can use the E-Journals A-Z list to find electronic versions.

The fastest way to find clincal based and research based journals is to visit your campus library.
